WHO WE ARE

We’re not in the wing business. We’re in the flavor business. It’s been our mission to Serve the World Flavor since we first opened in 1994, and we’re just getting started. 1997 saw the opening of our first brand partner operated Wingstop location, and by 2002 we had served the world one billion wings. It’s flavor that defines us and has made Wingstop one of the fastest growing brands in the restaurant industry.

Above all else – our success is largely due to our people and our core values, or what we call The Wingstop Way of being entrepreneurial, service-minded, fun and authentic. We believe having a strong people foundation centered on these collective values creates a crave-worthy culture and talented team, as well as ensures our brand is poised for accelerated growth. We all win together.

WHO YOU ARE

SWEEP THE FLOOR – No job is too small. You recognize that the real work happens in the restaurants, and everything we do should support their success. While we encourage aiming high and staying entrepreneurial, you stay humble, roll up your sleeves, and always look for ways to help. You learn from others and contribute wherever you can

GIVE A $H!T – You care deeply about doing great work and driving results. You’re curious, ask questions, and seek out opportunities to improve. You don’t just point out problems—you bring solutions, ideas, and perspectives that move the team forward. You see a project through from start to finish.

OWN IT – You take full responsibility for your work and see things through to completion. You aren’t afraid to fail because you know that failure is a part of learning and growth. You take action, move fast, stay agile, and keep pushing forward.

NO A$$HOLES – You lead with empathy, respect, and emotional intelligence. You collaborate effectively, fostering a culture of trust and constructive feedback. You understand the importance of teamwork and ensure that your actions build others up rather than break them down.

IRON SHARPENS IRON – Doesn’t mean artificial harmony. You push yourself and others to be better while building each other up.

You believe that leaders create leaders and are committed to fostering a culture of growth, challenge, and continuous improvement.
